It was opening weekend for the 2008 season Scarborough Faire. No snow this year. Part of me was a bit sad about that. The sight of such anomalies are always very welcoming. Anyway the weekend was actually near ideal in temperament. There were a few new things and as always I ran into old acquaintences and met new people. Took much higher number of pics than normal for the time of the run. I was running that strong on enthusiasm. To the point of exhaustion as I discovered by Sunday's end. Luckily that's 1 of the few perks of using a digital. It was still going.

The gnome's got style	Didn't get to my faves, the Corsairs til late in the day.	Starting off with Essequibo River	Peregrine singing about booty
Boats			Wrap me up in me oilskin and jumpers
.... I'm taking a trip mates	And I'll see you someday on Fiddler's Green	Breaking into a superlative arrangement of	Down Among the DeadMen
Will leading off in solo	to the Mulligantyre	Peregrine always	gets into the songs
